2. In this presentation: Data and methods used
Results – aiming to aid the selection of habitats and species

3. DATA & METHOD USED Art 17 data of 2007-2012 (data from MS)
Excluding 1) species listed in Annex V only & 2) species and habitats occurring only in one MS (except for MMAC and MBLS)
In total the analysis covers:
Atlantic Marine region: 7 habitat types and 33 species
Baltic Marine region: 7 habitat types and 4 species
Black Sea Marine region: 7 habitat types and 3 species
Macaronesian Marine region: 6 habitat types and 35 species
Mediterrean Marine region: 8 habitat types and 21 species

4. How the results were calculated?
1. Criteria for prioritization:
Number of MS where species/habitat types are present (criterion A)
Species and habitat types at unfavourable/unknown conservation status (criterion B)
Negative trend using certain parameters (criterion C)
2. Filtering species and habitat types:
- priority index calculated using A*(B + C) for each species and habitat type
